Planner
Everline Events
Maren Ellison, founder
Maren Ellison has planned more than three hundred weddings in twelve years, and she still cries at every ceremony. Her studio, Everline Events, takes on fourteen celebrations a year across the US and Italy.
Her philosophy is logistics-first: timelines built backwards from sunset, vendor teams briefed like film crews, and a rule that no decision reaches the couple the week of the wedding.
In this interview she talks about the questions couples never ask (but should), the real cost of a marquee wedding, and why she visits every venue twice — once in the rain.
